KEY FINDINGS
"In summary, the LPI discriminated among these nine schools. It had
expected intercorrelations within sub-scales and maintained conceptual integrity when
subjected to factor analysis. The combine scale and three of the five sub-scales met both
criteria for interval data. The LPI-Other means and standard deviations were similar in their
ranges and patterns with senior federal executives and senior private sector executives.
The distribution of LPI-Self scores approximated the distribution reported by Kouzes and
Posner for the LPI-Self. Finally, the participants validated 81% of the salient principal
scores as actual patterns of behavior in their experience...it can be concluded that the
Leadership Practices Inventory is valid in its application to the study of educational
leadership in middle level schools." (178).

There were no statistically significant relationships between any of the teacher
characteristics (length of teaching experience or service at the school, grade level, gender,
or degree level), school (size or middle level versus junior high) characteristics, average
daily attendance, or Teacher Efficacy scores and the principal's leadership behavior (LPI).

"Principal's ethical leadership philosophy determined by Shapiro's Ethical
Leadership/Followership interview protocol was related to the LPI-Other mean scores in
two ways. First, within the interview process, principals made statements that were content
analyzable within the framework of the LPI descriptors. The number of these statements
per principal strongly correlated with the LPI-Other scores for the principals (r = .84, p <.001). Second, both the number of statements and the LPI-Other scores of the principals
with transformational ethical philosophies were significantly higher than those principals
with transactional ethical philosophies (T = 6.60, p < .001)" (251).

Faculty completed either the LPI-Other or the Integrity Audit. All five leadership
practices significantly correlated (<.67) with the Integrity Audit and generally all of its
subscales as well. Modeling had the strongest correlations across the Integrity Audit.
